The market still favors Liverpool, but they are winless at home this season and have only two wins in their last six league matches. Brighton have four consecutive league wins, 15 goals and four clean sheets, giving them greater threat in transitions and wide areas. With conflicting signals, a narrow away win is preferred, while the draw remains a serious possibility.
Liverpool face a quick turnaround after the midweek 4-3 win and are still without a league home victory this season.
Both teams have lengthy injury lists, but the severity of each absence is unclear; strong wind may disrupt passing and set-piece delivery.

Betting odds still make home side Liverpool the favourite, with an implied probability of about 44%, but the expert intelligence and recent form lean toward the visitors. Brighton have won four straight league games and scored 15 in that run, with a stable record on the road. Liverpool have yet to win a Premier League home match this season, and 62% of their 8 conceded goals came at home. Isak and Kostoulas can both finish off transitions, so an open contest is likely. Overall, Brighton have a slight edge, but a draw or a Liverpool fightback remains very much possible.
If Liverpool take an early lead and Isak exploits transitions, the match could be forced into a slower tempo, which would test Brighton's counterattacking efficiency away from home.
Heavy rain and strong wind (around 44 km/h) at kickoff may hurt long passing and passing accuracy, making the match more cagey and raising the chance of a draw.
Brighton have lost 100% of their last 10 away matches when trailing, so conceding first would create a meaningful risk of a reversal.

Liverpool are still winless at home in the Premier League (2 draws, 1 loss) and error-prone at the back. Brighton are on four straight wins, 15 goals scored and none conceded, clearly superior in transition. Liverpool's midweek Champions League comeback and Isak's form are positives, but fatigue and injuries blunt their home edge. All things considered, a narrow Brighton away win is the lean.

Liverpool have drawn two and lost one of their league home games, with a soft defensive record; their midweek 4-3 comeback showed resilience but cost energy. Brighton arrive on a four-match league winning run with sharp transitions, though they concede a high share of goals away and have wide options on the injury list. Anfield history and Isak's finishing give Liverpool a narrow edge, but draw and away-win risks remain high.
Liverpool are still without a league home win this season; if they concede first and push forward, the space behind will amplify Brighton's counterattacks.
Brighton have conceded 80% of their league goals away and have several wide and forward players on the injury list, so turnovers in build-up could invite sustained Liverpool pressure.
